Inescapable Destiny

A nomadic voyage, a heart's quest

Quiet and alone were an attractive option

But your music makes me dance

Your beauty induced a trance

What do I have to offer, but this heart

I could swim the sea to you

I can drown

or take this love to my last breath

 

The warmth while holding you, oh....

creates an infinite confirmation

My moist eyes looking into yours are not sad,

no...

I'm jubilant and thankful

You held resilient to your promise

and gave all that you are

I was lost and you restored me

 

My caramel coated aspirations live

in memories

Dark brown eyes and a body of firm silk

my hands and soul are deprived of you

My heart's demise begins one minute apart

A day or more is torture lancing outward

through my flesh

Inspirations defeat all lucidity

I need you

 

Every future thought, you are there

Your motivated smile is a victory for me

and I can smile

My endless home is now wherever you are

~
